Suitcase Gift Box Stack

I'm working on gift packaging as gifts start to miraculously appear from the Prime van. 👀 
I love not having to leave my house and fight the crowds. 
I support all my small businesses and friends with businesses first, before I turn to Amazon and those small gifts are what will be packaged in these boxes.


   A suitcase is just a box with a handle. I made these in graduated sizes so they would stack until I am ready to use them.
The largest one is 8-1/2 "x 11" scored at 1"on all four sides.
Then 8"x10-1/2" scored at 1" on all four sides.
Then 7-1/2" x 10" scored at 1" on all four sides.
The smallest is 7" x 9-1/2" scored at 1" on all four sides.

Black Friday Birthday Celebration With Jaden Blossom

It's a big Black Friday Celebration over at Jaded Blossom.  They're 10 years old!

Jaded Blossom started as a party favor stamp company making candy stamps and poop poems - remember the days of snowman poop and others? 

For this release, they've decided to update and re-release some of the original stamp sets for the bottom of Hershey Kisses.  They can also be used for Reeses tiny peanut butter cups and Rolo candies.


Let's start with new Clear Jar Birthday Add Ons.  
This time I made them into shaker tags for a festive celebration!

Clear Jar Stamp Set Dies can be found here.


This is what the Candy Grid Die looks like as it cuts out the little images from Birthday Candies Grid Style stamp set that fit perfectly on the bottom of the Hershey kisses.



I bagged up the stamped Hershey Kisses and added the shaker tags.
That's a fun way to dress up your candy!



Next up is the new XL Topper Die.

Baggie Toppers are another great way to dress up a bagged gift, whether it is a cello bag of candy, a paper bag or like here, glassine bags.
This topper die is big and perfectly fits the glassine bags that are 5-1/2" wide.  I use these to put cards and envelopes in when I give smaller card sets.  


Also new to the birthday celebration is the first ever Jaded Blossom Paper Pack.

The cards above and below as well as the baggie toppers are all made with the new patterned paper.  
It is 6 x 6, double sided and 12 patterns ranging from soft blues all the way to turquoise.  
Beautiful papers!


There's a freebie!


Can't decide and think you may need it all?  
There is a link for that HERE.


Head on over to Jaded Blossom and check out all the new things for their Birthday Celebration!

Guest Designer For Papertrey Ink

I'm thrilled to be a guest designer for Papertrey Ink release.  I've been following them for years and love their creativity!
I've used a few products from the new release here, but like always please check out their website for the full release.



For this card, I used the new Corner It: Festive Holiday.  
Lots of little holiday images put together in a spray.
The sentiment is from the new Inside Greetings: Heaven and Nature Sing.





This gorgeous die set is called  Into The Blooms: Peonies Die
Layers and layers to make the prettiest peonies.  
I used a pine bow from the Corner It: Festive Holiday in the background.  
The sentiment is from Joyful Florals. (shown below)






They have two new bow building die sets in this release.  


You can make regular bows, loopy bows, multiple loops of bows, small bows, large bows...anything you want. This is a duper fun die! 😂


The gift tags are a stand alone die set called Holiday Cheer Gift Tag Dies

I also used Joyful Florals on the tags.



Holiday Cheer Gift Tag Dies


I used the ball ornament gift tag for this card.  
I cut snowflakes from the Overlay Collection Dies set to add texture to the ornaments.
The sentiment is from Just Sentiments: Heaven and Nature Sing and the greenery sprigs and bows are from the Corner It: Festive Holiday.



A big thank you to Papertrey Ink for asking me to play along with them this month.  I hope you will take a minute and check out their new products.
